Lexusgs430: You go around making fun of people even in other thread all in the name of humour when it's not necessary . As you & others may think I'm not related to the person in question, I don't know him from Adam , others gave their advice and suggestions. But you check out what you're always spitting out as an elderly person you claim to be . Haba it's not necessary 2 Likes |

Heres hoping lexus and his new bestie give us a reprieve. Interesting to watch masquerades dance in the market Square though. I have often wondered why we found that so interesting. I concluded that the anonymity of the masquerade gab makes them more interesting, more daring, more energetic which in turn thrills us. The idea of an entity being so brazen doing hoops, tricks, in past times walking through fire, holds our attention. 2 Likes |

Good morning honorables. I'll be in the uk in 2 weeks time. As such, I have been actively searching and applying to blue collar jobs. This would enable me get going immediatley, while I work towards getting my desired career path. But my shock is, I have gotten a few rejection mails for some of the blue collar jobs (mostly night shifts) that I have applied to, and it is beginning to give me a cause for concern Any tips on how to get a job aimmediately would be greatly appreciated. I already have BRP and NI 1 Like |

Intended on waiting till the whole smoke goes off before commenting, but it seems it wonโt any time soon and we all have to go back to work tomorrow (for those on hols). While we appreciate good jokes, sarcasm and banter, itโs important to note that in some situation it may not be appropriate or may be deem insult to people who has or are experiencing the supposed situation in that context. Waited for people who are married for YEARs or who have been here for YEARs to point out what cultural shock/change can cause and how it can be difficult for marriages (regardless of how long). Marriage is not easy. Zahra29 was on that pure explanation process before she let herself distracted and involved in this assumption battle. Letโs be real, the cultural change abroad can eliminate jokers in marriage. First almost everyone around you is divorced. Some of the ones married are on the second and third. Some are single parents and from the outside it looks like they have everything going great for themselves. When you look at all these things, you begin to think you can be happy being separated from your partner. A partner (male or female) who ignored everyone in the UK and thought it will be best to have his/her spouse here in the UK. You know what it means to come abroad first, live for some weeks/months and start to assist for your husband or wife to come join you? I doubt if anyone will contribute to bring a partner thatโs not ok abroad. Cultural shock is big, for some of us, the only time we see men in Nigeria bath and take care of their kids, itโs because they are jobless or being controlled by their wife (Nigerian translation). When a woman works hard, the next translations is her husband is a lazy man. we canโt just keep going this way. We have to make a change, advise people based on your experience. Tell people the truth. We canโt just keep helping people with information on how to separate from their partner without offering experienced based advice. A new couple comes to the UK and few months divorce and separation card is presented. You donโt need anyone to tell you cultural shock could be impacting real hard on them. Man thinks it will be great to have all this beautiful woman out here, woman thinks another man will treat her better (forgetting that the city is filled with recycled products). Or man gets intimidated with the fact that his wife earns more, work crazy shift and will like to rest more, or man wants the Nigerian woman he married who does everything in the house while he watches football and drink beer. Donโt ask me how I know this, if you ride the bus, you will hear a man calling his people that his wife has changed since she got to the UK. Or a woman telling her friends her husband is suddenly lazy and picky of jobs. If you doubt me, try early morning buses (5:30 and 6am). Letโs tell people the truth from experience, marriage is not easy, itโs worst under 5yrs and you move abroad. Cultural change and shock will punch the marriage every single day. Tell your male friends to come down and help in the house, bath the kids and spend time with the kids (it helps with bonding, plus you donโt want someone outside advising your child), let your kids love you naturally. Women tell your female friends your husband friend (since you canโt say itโs your husband) behaved like that in the past, just give him some time and tolerate his attitude, him eye go soon clear. Tell people the truth, marriage is hard. We are here arguing about someoneโs joke and making translations about situation we donโt have the real story of, forgetting/ignoring that โ Another Nigerian marriage is about to endโ. Now this thing don de long. Seun abi Justwise, who do we send suggestions to, we need audio messaging to help shorten all this long write up. 22 Likes 2 Shares |

gmacnoms: You need to calm down and get in first and lower your expectation. chances are that you may not get the job of your dream in the first 6months or more of landing in the UK. Take any job to help you settle down and support your family. There are people who land a good job within few months of arriving in the UK, keep applying and don't get discouraged by refusals. You need to get in first, get an accommodation, bank account, mobile phone contract etc then start applying for jobs 2 Likes |
